The Cevennes National Park, together with its twin the Parc Naturel des Grands Causses, are among the richest natural areas in France. Against a stunning background of steep cliffs, extensive forests and open, steppe-like plateaux, the visitor can discover an exceptional wealth of flora and fauna. The hundreds of kilometers of trails and tracks make it easy to explore the area with its wealth of orchids and other wildflowers, its superb range of birds and butterflies. The traditional, medieval villages amidst the impressive mountainous country provide a relaxed starting point for exploration. In other words, the Cevennes has everything a naturalist could wish for.
